When using Visual Studio 2010, I open an aspx and cs file to edit. (I have not created a project. I am simply opening one aspx file and one cs file from my web directory to edit.) The intellisense will not detect System.Web or a large variety of others. In fact, only basic resources seem available. Is there a way to correct this?
As you are not in a project, you lack much of the context that would permit full intellisense support. VS has no idea what assemblies are included, and does not have imports from the web.config.
Remember that Intellisense tries to only present you with code completions that actually apply in the current build configuration. Without assemblies referenced, it can’t guess that you have anything at all in, say, System.Web.
